What is normal heatbeat range for baby at 36 weeks pregnant?

Nicole J asked:


I am having to be hooked up to fetal monitors 2x per week and am wondering what is the normal heartbeat range for a baby at 36 weeks? It went from 125 to 160 and they said that everything was fine. Today I go back again and am just wondering what would be considered not good?

I’m 8 weeks pregnant and I know it’s a little early for a home heart monitor but I want to get one. What’s the best one out there and how well does it work?

Whats the fetal heart monitor?

» мσммч тσ вє ; asked:


Im currently 24w5d’s my my next ob appt is Dec 30th. My OB told me at my last appt that after the one coming up hes going to start going ahead and seeing me weekly, possibly even 2 times a week to keep a close eye on the baby. {At the beginning of the pregnancy I had high bloodsugar, now iwth the insulin it seems to get low alot! plus with the baby growing Ive lost some of my appetite which he said is completly normal.}

Anyways my question is when he told me he was going to have me come in once or twice a week after the heart appt, he mentioned he was doing that so he could also put me on a fetal heart montior. What exactly is this? What is the process?

Sorry if this is a silly question, but thanks for any help you could possibly give me!

Earl
